1 NATURE
OF OPERATIONS AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Merger
transaction
On
February 10, 2006, the Company entered into a letter of intent with the
stockholders of DaLian RunZe Chemurgy Co., Ltd. (“DRC” or the “Purchasers”). The
Purchasers agreed to pay a total of $515,000 to the Company and the Company’s
controlling stockholders, including the Lebrecht Group, APLC (“TLG”), legal
counsel for the Company. Upon signing the letter of intent, the Purchasers
paid
$300,000 as a deposit and the remaining amount was paid at the closing of the
transaction. Subsequent to entering into this letter of intent, the Purchasers
were replaced with China Agro Sciences Corp., (“China Agro”) a Florida
corporation, and the terms of the letter of intent remained the
same.
On
March
15, 2006, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with China
Agro whereby, at the closing, China Agro will merge with DaLian Acquisition
Corp. (“DaLian”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company formed in 2006 (the
“Merger Agreement”), The transaction closed on May 1, 2006, at which time, in
accordance with the Merger Agreement, DaLian Holding Corp. (“DHC”) merged into
DaLian, whereby DHC remained the surviving entity and DaLian ceased to exist.
Upon this merger, the Company issued 13,449,488 shares of its common stock
to
the former stockholders of DHC.
In
addition, certain of the DHC stockholders acquired 5,500,000 shares of the
Company from the then majority stockholder, director and sole officer and his
holding company. Following the closing, the DHC stockholders owned 18,949,488
shares of the Company’s common stock, or 94.7% of the Company’s outstanding
20,000,000 shares. As a result of the DHC transaction, the Company terminated
their status as a business development company and, through DHC, became a
development stage company specializing the sale and distribution of pesticides
and herbicides. The Company’s only operations after this transaction are
conducted through their wholly-owned subsidiary (Ye Shen) which controls the
assets and operations of Runze, an entity with operations in the People’s
Republic of China (“PRC”).
The
above
transaction was accounted for as a reverse merger and, accordingly, DHC is
considered to be the surviving entity.
Business
description
The
Company specializes in the manufacturing, sale and distribution of herbicides
and pesticides to reduce or eliminate the amount of agricultural produce lost
to
plant diseases and insects. Their manufacturing and distribution operations
are
based in the PRC, which is where all of the Company’s sales to date have
occurred.

Accounting
methods
The
Company’s financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of
accounting. The Company has elected a fiscal year ending on September 30th.
Uses
of estimates in the preparation of financial
statements
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of net revenue and expenses during each reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash
The
Company maintains cash with financial institutions in the PRC and Hong Kong.
The
Company performs periodic evaluation of the relative credit standing of
financial institutions that are considered in the Company’s investment
strategy.
Inventories
Inventories,
consisting of raw materials, are valued at the lower of cost as determined
by
the first-in, first-out method or market.
Property
and equipment
Property
and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided in amounts
sufficient to amortize the cost of the related assets over their useful lives
using the straight line method for financial reporting purposes, whereas
accelerated methods are used for tax purposes.
Maintenance,
repairs and minor renewals are charged to expense when incurred. Replacements
and major renewals are capitalized.
Deferred
income taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109 (ASFAS
109") which requires that deferred tax assets and liabilities be recognized
for
future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement
carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax
bases. In addition, SFAS 109 requires recognition of future tax benefits, such
as carryforwards, to the extent that realization of such benefits is more likely
than not and that a valuation allowance be provided when it is more likely
than
not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be
realized.

Currency
translation
Since
the
Company operates primarily in the PRC, the Company’s functional currency is the
Chinese Yuan ("RMB"). Revenue and expense accounts are translated at the average
rates during the period, and balance sheet items are translated at period-end
rates. Translation adjustments arising from the use of differing exchange rates
from period to period are included as a component of stockholders’ equity. Gains
and losses from foreign currency transactions are recognized in current
operations.
Seasonal
business
Due
to
the seasonal nature of the Company’s business, the results of operations for the
three months ended December 31, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the
anticipated results for the year ending September 30, 2007.

RISK FACTORS
Vulnerability
due to Operations in PRC
The
Company’s operations may be adversely affected by significant political,
economic and social uncertainties in the PRC. Although the PRC government has
been pursuing economic reform policies for more than 20 years, no assurance
can
be given that the PRC government will continue to pursue such policies or that
such policies may not be significantly altered, especially in the event of
a
change in leadership, social or political disruption or unforeseen circumstances
affecting the PRC’s political, economic and social conditions. There is also no
guarantee that the PRC government’s pursuit of economic reforms will be
consistent or effective.
Substantially
all of the Company’s businesses are transacted in RMB, which is not freely
convertible. The People’s Bank of China or other banks are authorized to buy and
sell foreign currencies at the exchange rates quoted by the People’s Bank of
China. Approval of foreign currency payments by the People’s Bank of China or
other institutions requires submitting a payment application form together
with
suppliers’ invoices, shipping documents and signed contracts.
Concentration
of Credit Risk
Financial
instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentration
of
credit risk is primarily cash and accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2006,
substantially all of the Company’s cash was managed by financial
institutions.
Substantially
all sales were made to one customer and all accounts receivable were from one
customer.

Other
Risks
The
Company conducts business in an industry that is subject to a broad array of
environmental laws and regulations. The Company’s costs to comply with these
laws and regulations are charged to expense as incurred.
The
Company’s manufacturing facilities have not been granted the necessary operating
environmental permits. Additionally, the facilities do not meet the quality
control procedures required by its sole customer.

GENERAL COMMENTS
During
the three month period ended December 31, 2006, approximately $300,000 of
accounts payable was repaid by the transfer of finished goods

ITEM
2 Managements
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations.
Our
Management’s Discussion and Analysis contains not only statements that are
historical facts, but also statements that are forward-looking (within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Forward-looking statements are, by their
very
nature, uncertain and risky. These risks and uncertainties include
international, national and local general economic and market conditions;
demographic changes; our ability to sustain, manage, or forecast growth; our
ability to successfully make and integrate acquisitions; existing government
regulations and changes in, or the failure to comply with, government
regulations; adverse publicity; competition; fluctuations and difficulty in
forecasting operating results; changes in business strategy or development
plans; business disruptions; the ability to attract and retain qualified
personnel; the ability to protect technology; and other risks that might be
detailed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
Although
the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report reflect the good faith
judgment of our management, such statements can only be based on facts and
factors currently known by them. Consequently, and because forward-looking
statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, the actual results
and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed
in
the forward-looking statements. You are urged to carefully review and consider
the various disclosures made by us in this report and in our other reports
as we
attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect
our business, financial condition, and results of operations and
prospects.
Overview
As
a
result of the merger transaction between our subsidiary, Dalian Acquisition
Corp. (“Dalian”), and Dalian Holding Corp. (“DHC”), all of our operations are
conducted through our subsidiary, DHC, which conducts all of its operations
through its subsidiary, Ye Shun, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Runze.
Therefore, since our relevant operations post merger are conducted through
Ye
Shun and Runze the discussion herein relates to the operations of those two
entities.
Ye
Shun
is a Hong Kong registered enterprise that has its ownership in Runze as its
primary asset. Runze is a state-appointed pesticide manufacturer in China.
Through Runze, we specialize in the manufacturing of pesticides and herbicides,
particularly the herbicide Acetochlor. During the fiscal year ended September
30, 2006, we only sold one product, Acetochlor, and we sold all our Acetochlor
to one customer, Jilin Ruiye Pesticide Co. Additionally, all the Acetochlor
we
manufactured was at the manufacturing facilities of Dalian Raiser Chemurgy
Co.,
Ltd. (“DRC”), a related-party where our sole officer and Director is the
President and Chairman of the Board. During the three months ended December
31,
2006, we were not able to negotiate the same discounted rate for the use
of
DRC’s manufacturing facilities and, as a result, we did not manufacture any of
our own Acetochlor during these three months and instead purchased Acetochlor
manufactured by DRC and used
itin
a
barter transaction with vendors and creditors. Instead of taking payment
for
our payables,
they accepted the finished product as repayment. Going forward we hope to
again
use DRC’s manufacturing facilities to manufacture our product to sell to
unrelated third parties. In the future we expect to
continue manufacturing
at DRC’s facility until
such time as we are able to operate our own manufacturing facilities at levels
satisfactory to our clients’ specifications and needs. Although we plan to
obtain the necessary environmental permits and improve the quality control
procedures at our manufacturing facility during fiscal year 2007, we currently
anticipate manufacturing the majority of our product(s) at DRC’s production
facility during fiscal year 2007.
12
Background
We
were
incorporated under the name M-GAB Development Corporation in March 2001.
From
inception through early 2003, our business was the development, marketing,
and
distribution of an interactive
travel brochure. On May 16, 2003, we filed an election to be treated as a
business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940
(the “1940 Act”), which became effective on the date of filing. As a BDC our
principal business was to make venture capital investments in early-stage
and/or
developing enterprises that were principally engaged in the development or
exploitation of inventions, technological improvements, and new or unique
products and services. The principal objective was long-term capital
appreciation. Consistent with our previous status as a BDC and the purposes
of
the regulatory framework for BDC’s under the 1940 Act, we were prepared to
provide managerial assistance, potentially in the form of a consulting agreement
or in the form of a board of director’s seat, to the developing companies in
which were looking to invest. As a BDC we never made any investments into
eligible portfolio companies.
On
March
10, 2006, we formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, DaLian Acquisition Corp, a
Florida corporation (“DaLian”). On May 1, 2006, DaLian merged with Dalian
Holding Corp., a Florida corporation (“DHC”) that was formed by non-affiliated
party on March 9, 2006. As a result of this merger DHC remained as the surviving
entity and DaLian ceased to exist. Prior to DaLian’s merger with DHC, DHC
acquired all the outstanding common stock of Ye Shun International (“Ye Shun”),
a company that owns all the outstanding common stock of DaLian Runze Chemurgy
Co., Ltd. (“Runze”). Ye Shun is a Hong Kong registered enterprise. Runze is
classified by the Chinese government as an enterprise entity with 100% of its
capital coming from Hong Kong.
In
accordance with the terms of the Agreement, on April 28, 2006 we terminated
our
status as a business development company under the Investment Company Act of
1940 and, through our wholly-owned subsidiary, became a company specializing
in
the sale and distribution of pesticides and herbicides. After the close of
this
transaction our only operations are conducted through our wholly-owned
subsidiary, which controls the assets of Runze.
During
the quarter ended March 31, 2005, a market maker filed an application to list
our securities on the OTC Bulletin Board. On October 10, 2005, we were informed
by the NASD that our common stock was approved by the NASD for trading on the
OTC Bulletin Board. Our trading symbol is CHAS.
Our
merger transaction closed on May 1, 2006. The merger transaction is accounted
for using the reverse purchase method of accounting for financial reporting
purposes since: (i) prior to this transaction China Agro had little or no
substantial assets or business operations, (ii) post-closing, the former owners
of DHC now own approximately 95% of China Agro and therefore control China
Agro,
and (iii) post-closing, the only continuing business operations of China Agro
are those of DHC. In accordance with the reverse purchase method of accounting
the historical financial numbers disclosed in this quarterly report are those
historical numbers of DHC and Runze and does not cover our previous operations
as a BDC.

Revenues
We
had no
revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2006, compared to revenues
of
$986,894 for the same period one year ago. This decrease in revenue is due
to
fact that we did no marketing of our products to customers in the period
ended
December 31, 2006. Instead,
during the
period, we purchased finished product from DRC and used it in a barter
transaction with vendors and creditors. Instead of taking payment for our
payables, they accepted the finished product as repayment.
In
addition, we were not able to enjoy the use of the manufacturing facilities
of
DRC at a significantly discounted rate compared to fiscal year 2006. Without
the
use of DRC’s manufacturing facilities at a discounted rate, we were forced to
purchase finished product from DRC to pay our vendors and creditors.
Going
forward we hope to again use DRC’s manufacturing facilities to manufacture our
product to sell to unrelated third parties. In the future we expect to
continue manufacturing
at DRC’s facility until
we
are able to operate our own manufacturing facilities at levels satisfactory
to
our clients’ needs. Unless we can successfully negotiate with DRC, as we did in
fiscal year 2006, to use their manufacturing facilities at discounted rates,
in
the near term, we will be forced to purchase finished product from them directly
for re-sale.
Cost
of Sales
Our
cost
of sales were nil for the three months ended December 31, 2006, compared
to cost
of sales of $727,743 for the same period one year ago. We
did
not have any
cost of
sales because,
as described above, we did not have any sales during this three
month period and
all
the good we purchased went
to
pay
off
payables with third party vendors.
Gross
Profit
Our
gross
profit was nil
for the
three months ended December 31, 2006, compared to gross profit of $259,151
for
the same period one year ago. Our gross profit was significantly lower for
the
current three-month period compared to the same period one year ago due to
the
above-mentioned significant decrease in revenues.
14
Total
Operating Expenses
Our
total
operating expenses were $208,644 for the three months ended December 31,
2006, compared to total operating expenses of $90,113 for the same period
one
year ago. All of our operating expenses for the two periods were attributable
to
general and administrative expenses. For the three months ended December
31,
2006 our general and administrative expenses of $208,644 consisted
primarily of amortized costs related to financial consulting services which
totaled approximately $80,000 and depreciation of $117,000
For
the
same period one-year ago DHC and Runze’s general and administrative expenses
consisted primarily of administrative expenses. During that period, depreciation
was not factored into the general and administrative expenses, but rather
cost
of sales as we actually were able to manufacture product with our own
equipment.
Net
Income (Loss)
Net
loss
for the three months ended December 31, 2006 totaled $208,644 compared to
net income of $169,038 for the comparable period one year ago. This significant
difference is largely attributable to the lack of revenues, and is also due
to
our increase in general and administrative expenses for the current three-month
period. It should be noted that in general, during the first quarter of every
fiscal year, the revenues and net income represent only a fraction of the
overall year’s revenues and net income.
Specifically
for the first fiscal quarter of 2006, revenues of $986,894 and net income
of
$169,038 represented only about 7% of the entire year’s total revenues and net
income of $12,749,788 and $2,202,804 respectively. This is due to the
seasonality of our primary product, Acetochlor. This herbicide is not used
on
farmland during the late fall and early winter months due to the colder weather.
However, as noted above, in the first fiscal quarter of 2007, our revenues
were
also lower as a result of not achieving any sales due to our inability to
use
DRC’s manufacturing facilities at a discounted rate as we did in the same period
in fiscal year 2006.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Introduction
As
of
December 31, 2006, we had cash and cash equivalents totaling $149,065, no
accounts receivable as a result of the collection all $2,013,529 in account
receivables as of September 30, 2006, inventory totaling $480,776, prepaid
financial consulting expense of $545,262, due from an affiliated party of
$386,395, and other current assets totaling $12,868. Our current inventory
is
primarily our stock of raw material chemicals and finished chemical products
awaiting shipment and distribution. The prepaid financial consulting expense
is
an amount we prepaid to individual consultants for general advice and guidance.
Our total current liabilities as of December 31, 2006 were $1,308,113 consisting
entirely of accounts payable. All of our accounts payable were due to unrelated
third parties and we had no amounts due to related parties. Currently we hope
to
fund operations out of our sales of herbicides and pesticides going forward,
but
there is no assurance we will be able to do so. If we are not able to do so
we
would likely fund operations through the sale of our stock and from loans.

Cash
Requirements
We
intend
to use our available funds as working capital and to make expansion in our
existing lines of business. We believe that our available funds will provide
us
with adequate capital for at least the next twelve months; however, to the
extent that we make acquisitions, we may require additional capital for the
acquisition or for the operation of the combined companies. We cannot assure
that such funding will be available.
Sources
and Uses of Cash
Operations
Net
cash
provided by operating activities of $803,315 for the three months ended December
31, 2006 was primarily a result of collecting accounts receivable totaling
$2,045,549 and depreciation of $117,182, offset by our net loss for the three
months of $208,644, prepaid expenses and sundry current assets of $544,129,
the
payment of accounts payable of $502,020, inventories of $76,089, and accrued
expenses, taxes and sundry current liabilities of $28,534. Our net cash used
in
operating activities totaled $13,654 for the same three month period one
year
ago. The primary difference between the two periods is in the period ended
December 31, 2005 we incurred $4,527,473 in accounts payable and increased
inventory by $4,486,960 and collected account receivables totaling
$2,045,549.
Investing
Net
cash
used in investing activities totaled $22,935 for the three months ended December
31, 2006, as compared to $87,489 for the same period one year ago. Our investing
activities for the three month period ended December 31, 2006 consisted entirely
of the acquisition of property and equipment in the amount of $22,935. During
the same period in 2005, we had investing activities, also related to the
acquisition of property and equipment, totaling $87,489. The decrease for
the
current period is attributable to the additions to our infrastructure and
production lines in 2005 as compared to 2006 when we had already built up
our
manufacturing base to an operational level.
16
Financing
Net
cash
used in financing activities totaled $734,880 for the three months ended
December 31, 2006, as compared to $90,137 provided for the three months ended
December 31, 2005. Our net cash used for financing activities for the three
months ended December 31, 2006 related entirely to our loan from an affiliated
company. The $90,137 in net cash provided by financing activities for the
three
months ended December 31, 2005, was the result of $79,137 in loans from an
affiliated company and $11,000 from capital contributions.
Debt
Instruments, Guarantees, and Related Covenants
Our
related party debt is non-interest bearing and payable on demand. Our
long
term debt obligation bears interest at .03% over the prime rate in effect in
the
PRC and is payable interest only through July 2009, followed by annual
installments of approximately 233,000 RMB ($28,300) commencing in August 2010.
Critical
Accounting Policies
The
preparation of our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires our management
to
make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. As such, in accordance with the use of
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, our
actual realized results may differ from management’s initial estimates as
reported. A summary of our significant accounting policies are located in the
notes to the financial statements which are an integral component of this
filing.
ITEM
3 Quantitative
and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We
are
exposed to market risks, which include interest rate changes in United States
of
America and the People’s Republic of China, commodity prices and, to a lesser
extent, foreign exchange rates. We do not engage in financial transactions
for
trading or speculative purposes.
Interest
Rate Risk.
The
interest payable on our long term debt is based on variable interest rates
and
therefore affected by changes in market interest rates in People’s Republic of
China. In addition, there may be interest charged on our accounts payable,
as
well as interest we charge on our accounts receivable, depending on their age.
Typically these interest rates are fixed are not affected by changes in market
interest rates.
Commodity
Prices.
We are
exposed to fluctuation in market prices for our raw materials. To mitigate
risk
associated with increases in market prices and commodity availability,
we
negotiate contracts with favorable terms directly with vendors. We do not enter
into forward contracts or other market instruments as a means of achieving
our
objectives or minimizing our risk exposures on these materials.
Foreign
Currency Risks. Our
market risk associated with foreign currency rates is not considered to be
material. To date, we
have
only had minor amounts of transactions that were denominated in currencies
other
than the currency of the country of origin, and, therefore,
we have
only minimal exposure to foreign currency exchange risk. We do not hedge against
foreign currency risks and believe that foreign currency exchange risk is
immaterial to our current business.

ITEM
4 Controls
and Procedures
The
Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (or those persons
performing similar functions), after evaluating the effectiveness of the
Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-14(c) and
15d-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the
end
of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”), have concluded
that, as of the Evaluation Date, the Company’s disclosure controls and
procedures were effective to ensure the timely collection, evaluation and
disclosure of information relating to the Company that would potentially be
subject to disclosure under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
and
the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. There were no significant
changes in the Company’s internal controls or in other factors that could
significantly affect the internal controls subsequent to the Evaluation
Date.

PART
II
ITEM
1 Legal
Proceedings
In
the
ordinary course of business, we may be from time to time involved in various
pending or threatened legal actions. The litigation process is inherently
uncertain and it is possible that the resolution of such matters might have
a
material adverse effect upon our financial condition and/or results of
operations. However, in the opinion of our management, matters currently pending
or threatened against us are not expected to have a material adverse effect
on
our financial position or results of operations.
ITEM
1A Risk
Factors
On
at
least an annual basis, we are required to provide our shareholders with a
statement of risk factors and other considerations for their review. These
risk
factors and other considerations include:
Our
manufacturing plants are located in China and our pesticide and herbicide
production, sale and distribution is subject to Chinese
regulation.
Economic
reforms adopted by the Chinese government have had a positive effect on the
economic development of the country, but the government could change these
economic reforms or any of the legal systems at any time. This could either
benefit or damage our operations and profitability. Some of the things that
could have this effect are: i) level of government involvement in the economy;
ii) control of foreign exchange; methods of allocating resources; iv)
international trade restrictions; and v) international conflict. Additionally,
as a pesticide and herbicide manufacturer located in China, we are a
state-licensed company and facility and subject to Chinese regulation and
environmental laws. The Chinese government has been active in regulating the
pesticide industry. If we were to lose our state-licensed status we would no
longer be able to manufacture herbicides or pesticides in China, which is our
sole operation.
We
depend upon governmental laws and regulations that may be changed in ways that
hurt our business.
Our
business and products are subject to government regulations mandating the use
of
pesticides and herbicides in China and other countries. Changes in the laws
or
regulations in China, or other countries we sell into, that govern or apply
to
our operations could have a materially adverse effect on our business. For
example, the law could change so as to prohibit the use of certain chemical
agents in herbicides and pesticides. If our herbicides or pesticides contained
that chemical agent then such a change would reduce our productivity of that
product.
The
Chinese government exerts substantial influence over the manner in which we
must
conduct our business activities.
China
only recently has permitted provincial and local economic autonomy and private
economic activities. Chinese government has exercised and continues to exercise
substantial control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy through
regulation and state ownership. Our ability to operate in China may be harmed
by
changes in its laws and regulations, including those relating to taxation,
import and export tariffs, environmental regulations, land use rights, property
and other matters. Currently, our only manufacturing facility does not have
current environmental permits and is not operational, which has caused us to
manufacture our product(s) at DRC’s manufacturing facility. We hope to obtain
appropriate permits during fiscal year 2007, but there is no assurance this
will
occur. Additionally, even if we obtain appropriate
permits, the central or local governments of these jurisdictions may impose
new,
stricter regulations or interpretations of existing regulations that would
require additional expenditures and efforts on our part to ensure our compliance
with such regulations or interpretations.
19
Accordingly,
government actions in the future, including any decision not to continue to
support recent economic reforms and to return to a more centrally planned
economy or regional or local variations in the implementation of economic
policies, could have a significant effect on economic conditions in China or
particular regions thereof, and could require us to divest ourselves of any
interest we then hold in Chinese properties or joint ventures.
Future
inflation in China may inhibit our activity to conduct business in
China.
In
recent
years, the Chinese economy has experienced periods of rapid expansion and high
rates of inflation. During the past ten years, the rate of inflation in China
has been as high as 20.7% and as low as -2.2%. These factors have led to the
adoption by Chinese government, from time to time, of various corrective
measures designed to restrict the availability of credit or regulate growth
and
contain inflation. While inflation has been more moderate since 1995, high
inflation may in the future cause Chinese government to impose controls on
credit and/or prices, or to take other action, which could inhibit economic
activity in China, and thereby harm the market for our products.
Restrictions
on currency exchange may limit our ability to receive and use our revenues
effectively.
The
majority of our revenues will be settled in Renminbi, and any future
restrictions on currency exchanges may limit our ability to use revenue
generated in Renminbi to fund any future business activities outside China
or to
make dividend or other payments in U.S. dollars. Although the Chinese government
introduced regulations in 1996 to allow greater convertibility of the Renminbi
for current account transactions, significant restrictions still remain,
including primarily the restriction that foreign-invested enterprises may only
buy, sell or remit foreign currencies after providing valid commercial
documents, at those banks in China authorized to conduct foreign exchange
business. In addition, conversion of Renminbi for capital account items,
including direct investment and loans, is subject to governmental approval
in
China, and companies are required to open and maintain separate foreign exchange
accounts for capital account items. We cannot be certain that the Chinese
regulatory authorities will not impose more stringent restrictions on the
convertibility of the Renminbi.
The
value of our securities will be affected by the foreign exchange rate between
U.S. dollars and Renminbi.
The
value
of our common stock will be affected by the foreign exchange rate between U.S.
dollars and Renminbi, and between those currencies and other currencies in
which
our sales may be denominated. For example, to the extent that we need to convert
U.S. dollars into Renminbi for our operational needs and should the Renminbi
appreciate against the U.S. dollar at that time, our financial position, the
business of the Company, and the price of our common stock may be harmed.
Conversely, if we decide to convert our Renminbi into U.S. dollars for the
purpose of declaring dividends on our common stock or for other business
purposes and the U.S. dollar appreciates against the Renminbi, the U.S. dollar
equivalent of our earnings from our subsidiaries in China would be
reduced.
Currently,
we manufacture all of our products at DRC’s manufacturing
facility.
20
Due
to
certain manufacturing standards required by our sole customer to date,
Jilin
Ruiye Pesticide Co., and our lack of permits related to environmental
regulations, we manufactured all of the herbicides we sold in fiscal year
2006
at DRC’s manufacturing plant because our manufacturing facility does not meet
those standards. The manufacturing standards that Jilin Ruiye claims our
manufacturing facility does not meet relate to quality control. Therefore,
in
fiscal year 2006 we manufactured our product(s) at DRC’s manufacturing facility.
In fiscal year 2006, under our agreement with DRC, we paid DRC $100 per
ton of
product we produced at their facility. We believe these costs would have
been
significantly higher if we were forced to use an unrelated third party
manufacturing facility to manufacture our products. In the first quarter
of
fiscal 2007 DRC did not offer us the discounted manufacturing rate. As
a result,
we did not manufacture our own products in the first fiscal quarter of
2007 and
instead purchased manufactured product from DRC, which we then used
in a
barter transaction with vendors and creditors..
This was
a contributing factor in our significantly decreased revenues in the first
fiscal quarter of 2007. If DRC continues to require that we pay the regular,
non-discounted rate to manufacture our products in their facility then
we will
be required to purchase manufactured product from DRC to sell to our customers
rather than manufacture our own, which will likely significantly reduce
our
production capacity and our revenues. We will likely be required to continue
purchasing manufactured products from DRC until we complete the improvements
to
our manufacturing facility, which we believe will allow us to meet Jilin
Ruiye’s
strict manufacturing standards. These issues had a significant impact on
our
revenues in the first fiscal quarter of 2007 and calls into question our
ability
to continue as an operating company. Although we plan on continuing to
either
purchase DRC’s manufactured product or use DRC’s facilities at a discounted rate
until we obtain all necessary environmental permits for our manufacturing
facility and to improve our quality control procedures to meet Jilin Ruiye’s
standards, there is no assurance we will be successful in either of these
ventures.
For
the three months ended December 31, 2006, we did not sell any products
and had
no revenues.
In
the
past, we have only had
one
customer for our products, Jilin Ruiye Pesticide Co., an unrelated third
party
located in China. For
the
three months ended December 31, 2006, we had no revenues. This decrease
in
revenue is due to fact that we did no marketing of our products to customers
in
the period ended December 31, 2006. Instead, during the period, we purchased
finished product from DRC and used it in a barter transaction with vendors
and
creditors. Instead of taking payment for our payables, they accepted the
finished product as repayment. While we do not anticipate this to continue
in
future quarters, if it did it
would
have a significant impact on our ability to continue as an operating company.
We
are currently looking for additional sales channels utilizing Mr. Wang’s
connections in the industry but there is no assurance we will be
successful.
We
give no assurances that any plans for future expansion will be
implemented.
We
plan
on improving our current Acetochlor manufacturing facility to meet stricter
manufacturing standards. In order to accomplish this we must obtain certain
environmental permits and improve the quality control procedures at our
facility. However, we have not made any definitive plans or signed any binding
agreements to improve this facility. We may decide to use operating income
to
finance these expenditures, which would reduce our operating capital.
We
have a limited operating history and limited historical financial information
upon which you may evaluate our performance.
We
are in
our early stages of development and face risks associated with a new company
in
a growth industry. We may not successfully address these risks and uncertainties
or successfully implement our operating strategies. If we fail to do so, it
could materially harm our business to the point of having to cease operations
and could impair the value of our common stock to the point investors may lose
their entire investment. Even if we accomplish these objectives, we may not
generate positive cash flows or the profits we anticipate in the
future.
21
We
will face a lot of competition, some of which may be better capitalized and
more
experienced than us.
We
face
competition in the herbicide and pesticide industry. Although we view ourselves
in a favorable position vis-à-vis our competition, some of the other herbicide
and pesticide producing companies that sell into our markets may be more
successful than us and/or have more experience and money that we do. This
additional experience and money may enable our competitors to produce more
effective herbicides and/or pesticides and be sell their product with more
success than we are able to, which would decrease our sales.
Our
business is largely subject to the uncertain legal environment in China and
your
legal protection could be limited.
The
Chinese legal system is a civil law system based on written statutes. Unlike
common law systems, it is a system in which precedents set in earlier legal
cases are not generally used. The overall effect of legislation enacted over
the
past 20 years has been to enhance the protections afforded to foreign invested
enterprises in China. However, these laws, regulations and legal requirements
are relatively recent and are evolving rapidly, and their interpretation and
enforcement involve uncertainties. These uncertainties could limit the legal
protections available to foreign investors, such as the right of foreign
invested enterprises to hold licenses and permits such as requisite business
licenses. In addition, some of our executive officers and our directors may
be
residents of China and not of the United States, and substantially all the
assets of these persons are located outside the U.S. As a result, it could
be
difficult for investors to affect service of process in the United States,
or to
enforce a judgment obtained in the United States against us or any of these
persons.
Our
business is largely seasonal and sales of our products are subject to changes
in
the weather.
Since
we
are in the business of manufacturing and selling herbicide and pesticide
products our clients and end users are engaged in farming and crop production,
which is subject to changes in the seasons and weather. Therefore, the sales
of
our products will generally substantially decrease during the autumn and winter
months. Unusual weather such as prolonged freezing temperatures or particularly
hot temperatures also effect crop production and, therefore, could affect the
sales of our products.
